| ZONE x (BZ) | ZBrk: close outside the BZ (resets 18:00, 02:00, 09:30) | FLIP = CDLx/CDSx · CONT = LDx/SDx |
| CANDLE c-O | CBrk: close through the last GMC Open | FLIP = CDLc/CDSc · CONT = LDc/SDc |

Views: ALL, LONG, SHORT, FLIP (eBlock), CONT (iBlock), BRK+ (break candle closed past its own 50%), BRK− (it did not). Candles: each type, long and short.
| Code | Breaks (long) |
|---|---|
| E1 | Break Close, market |
| E2 | Break Open (limit) |
| E3 | Broken level retest (BZ edge / GMC level / swing line) |
| E4 | Zone near edge: OCL for BZ, origin candle High for c/s |
| E5 | Zone 50: BZ 50, origin candle 50% for c/s |
| E6 | Leg 50: halfway PL → break candle High |
| Code | Candle types (long; short mirrors) |
|---|---|
| C | Close, market |
| O | Open (limit) |
| L-P | P 87.5% = 12.5% pullback |
| L-MP | MP 75% |
| L-BAL | BAL 50% |
| L-MD | MD 25% |
| L-D | D 12.5% = deep |
Every limit runs twice: Touch (·T) and Through (·Th, price trades 1 tick past). A limit is cancelled if the 1:2 target prints first, a new break of the same engine prints (candles: 20 candles), price closes past PL / the candle's 0%, or the next open comes.
The grid shows checks 1–4, 6, 7 (Checks of 6). Plateau runs on the shortlist in PROOF CHECKLIST.
These are the first answers, from NQ 2022–25 only. Some ideas changed after the 2026 retest. The final calls are in VERDICTS (GUIDE tabs).
After costs, almost every combo loses. Share of combos with avg RR above 0 (1:2 target, 30+ trades):

15m, 09:30 1st BZ break, BZ 50–100 pts, E3-S0-X1 1:2, with costs, magnifier and the 18:00 timeout: 263 trades · WR 44% · PF 1.39 · avg RR +0.21 · t-score 2.45 · last 30% +0.22 (56 trades) · Through +0.20. Still green on every check we can run, but t is under 3, so it's a candidate, not proven.
